Wheels on Waves promotes the rights of disabled people, calling attention to this cause by crossing the ocean on board the catamaran “Lo Spirito di Stella.” Believed to be the first in the world to be fully accessible to disabled people, Lo Spirito di Stella, promotes the United Nations’ Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, from Miami to Rome, from the UN’s General Secretary to Pope Francis.

Limited to 500 fountain pens with 18k gold filigree nibs and 500 rollerball pens, Lo Spirito di Stella writing instruments are made of navy blue resin, the colour chosen to recall the sea and the craft, complementing a laser-cut teak barrel similar to the decking of fine sailing craft. All trim is made of stainless steel. The shape suggests the streamlining of the catamaran’s hulls, through an elongated cap with a sharpened point, a sleek signature clip with the wind rose symbol and a shapely, rounded barrel.
